I’m aware of the root of both words, but the shifts in language landing just beyond and before blockbuster’s rise and fall is a little funny. Blockbuster rose as blockbusting died and blockbusting renewed shortly after blockbuster went kaput. Weaving around it like an intangible barrier. Almost like bigotry couldn’t be bothered to do its thing under the strain of verbal confusion
Shut the fuck up, waxing philosophically about a goddamn video rental store and trying to make a poignant remark about the fact the business Blockbuster went out around the time the verb “blockbusting” came back in.
